Australian fashion line Ksubi is teaming up with LA based photographer Mark ‘Cobrasnake’ Hunter and his band of merry hipsters to market a new line of shirts on the Cobrasnake site, plastered with the face of Paris Hilton standing vaguely next to LA fashion icon Cory Kennedy, with the words “Vague” above, giving it a Vogue magazine cover feel. We don’t completely get it and neither did Fashionista, but we think it may be a cheeky attempt at poking fun at Hilton. Note her “vague” expression and Cory’s smart-arsed face. One thing we do know is that this might be illegal! Not so advisable to mess with someone whose family has the legal power of a small country! Not so vague!
